It is recommended to use BattlEye's RCon tool to administrate the server;
it uses custom port which one may easily secure by firewall rules! (RCON cannot be affected by in-game script exploits)

HowTo

You can access the command line by pressing the chat key ( default: / ).

In the chat input window you can type any of the following commands in and confirm them with the enter key.

You have to add the # character before the command.

The commands can be used in SQF scripts by using serverCommand.

ⓘ
Troubleshooting: All commands are confirmed via a message in the console. If you enter a command that is properly formatted and you see no confirmation of the command then an error has occurred. Check your server log for more information (e.g. one or more of your mission files is corrupt or has an error which prevents the Missions Lobby from loading, or may prevent other commands like #restart or #reassign from executing).

Commands

The following commands are available to you once you have connected to a server:

#debug userSent <username>
#debug userInfo <username>

#debug JIPQueue <username>
#debug totalSent 10

The available commands are:
checkFile
userSent
userInfo
userQueue
totalSent
JIPQueue

Each command can be disabled by the use of the off parameter e.g. #debug userSent off
Each command differs a bit; some output to screen, some to log file etc.
You need some debugger capable of catching OutputDebugString running on the client machine
(one very small and easy to use is available at SysInternals website).
You launch this debugger, then launch ARMA client, connect to the server, and issue any of the commands.

#debug (command) #debug von

#debug console

The available commands are:

console

Send to submitter what's on server console. Works as DebugAnswer for all writes into the console.

von

Outputs into logFile defined in server.cfg as e.g. logFile = "server_console.log";

Each of those commands should show a confirmation in the chat channels.

New admin commands since Armed Assault:
Command Description
#exec server side command Execute administration scripting command.
#lock Locks the server, prevents new clients from joining.
#unlock Unlocks the server, allows new clients to join.

Arma 3

In Arma 3 #exec kick and #exec ban commands require quotes (string) for Name, UID or Player#. To do this for the UID or Player#, use format command to turn the user ID into a string. 

#exec kick "5"
#exec ban "imah4x0r"
#exec kick "938679499494"

#kick command can still be used either way: 

#kick imah4x0r
#kick "imah4x0r"

In case of banning, ban.txt file is created in root Arma 3 directory that contains a list of banned UIDs. To unban a user by UID (UID is the only option) or to clear the ban.txt: 

#exec unban "98749837498374"
#exec clearbans

2 more diagnostic commands have been added to Arma 3:

Also new in Arma 3:

  • #restartServer
  • #monitorDS
